Falcons defensive end Jack Crawford (shoulder) and wide receiver Julio Jones (back) were limited in practice on Wednesday, according to the team’s official injury report, in advance of Sunday’s home game against the Buffalo Bills.

Falcons defensive end Vic Beasley, who’s recovering from a hamstring strain/tear injury, was slated to start running with the trainers off to the side at practice Wednesday. He was injured in the victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sept. 17 and did not play against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Running back Terron Ward (neck/shoulder) was also slated to return to running Wednesday.

Free safety Ricardo Allen and right tackle Ryan Schraeder remain in the NFL's concussion protocol program and did not practice. Defensive tackle Courtney Upshaw (ankle) did not practice and is not likely to return from injury for Sunday's game against the Bills.
